Vehicle body rear structure
A vehicle body rear structure has a rear floor panel, a rear panel, a rear bumper beam and a plurality of floor reinforcement portions. The rear bumper beam extends along a vehicle width direction in a central region in the vehicle width direction at a rear portion of the rear panel and has a length in the vehicle width direction shorter than a length of the rear floor panel and a length of the rear panel. Each of the plurality of floor reinforcement portions extends substantially along a vehicle front rear direction and reinforces a plurality of locations of the rear floor panel spaced apart in the vehicle width direction. Rear end portions of the floor reinforcement portions are disposed inner side of the rear bumper beam in the vehicle width direction than outer end portions of the rear bumper beam in the vehicle width direction.
1 . A vehicle body rear structure, comprising:
a rear floor panel disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle;
a rear panel disposed to stand at a rear portion of the rear floor panel;
a rear bumper beam extending along a vehicle width direction in a central region in the vehicle width direction at a rear portion of the rear panel and having a length in the vehicle width direction shorter than a length of the rear floor panel and a length of the rear panel; and
a plurality of floor reinforcement portions each of which extends substantially along a vehicle front rear direction and reinforces a plurality of locations of the rear floor panel spaced apart in the vehicle width direction,
wherein rear end portions of the floor reinforcement portions are disposed inner side of the rear bumper beam in the vehicle width direction than outer end portions of the rear bumper beam in the vehicle width direction,
wherein an outer floor reinforcement portion, which is disposed most outwardly in the vehicle width direction among the plurality of the floor reinforcement portions, is inclined outwardly in the vehicle width direction from a rear end portion of the outer floor reinforcement portion toward a front side of the vehicle,
wherein at least a rear portion area of the rear floor panel comprises a double panel structure having an upper panel and a lower panel, and
wherein the outer floor reinforcement portion comprises a cross-sectional reinforcement member that is coupled to the upper panel and the lower panel within a cross-section of the double panel structure.
2 . The vehicle body rear structure according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a left and right pair of rear side frames extending substantially along the vehicle front rear direction; and
a rear cross member connecting rear portions of the left and right pair of rear side frames,
wherein a member cross-sectional reinforcement member is connected within a cross-section of the rear cross member to reinforce the cross-section of the rear cross member, and
wherein the member cross-sectional reinforcement member is disposed between a front end portion of the cross-sectional reinforcement member and the rear side frame so as to be aligned in a straight line with the cross-sectional reinforcement member of the double panel structure.
3 . The vehicle body rear structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a left and right pair of rear side frames extending along the vehicle front rear direction,
wherein a front end portion of the outer floor reinforcement portion is butted against the rear side frames.
